I just don't really but into Reyes' whole back story. With his capabilities & how off the charts intelligent he is, he could've easily killed Earl & still have taken care of Kim without anyone knowing. With the kind of person Earl is it probably wouldn't be completely unexpected if he just disappeared one day. It doesn't seem like too many people in Earl's life would look into it that much or care enough about Reyes or Kim to do anything about them either.
It just doesn't really add up to me.

& Charlie's family all suck, except for Bob, of course. Wicked step mom for obvious reasons. Her dad for letting Denise treat her that way. Denise's actions pretty much lead to Charlie's sexual assault & the dad didn't even care. I know Charlie didn't straight up say what happened but she peed herself so they obviously would've helped her clean up & could see that she was missing her underwear & probably had some bruising or something. & I know her sister isn't in this book but she sucks too. She knows how Denise treated Charlie but didn't care at all either because she was the perfect little girl that got doted on.

& speaking of Bob, poor guy!! Apparently he's going to die the worst way imaginable & go to hell! Yikes!
